Interactive Review: 2013 Volvo S60 T6 AWD R-Design

Interior size, can a 6'6" tall person sit in the car upright or would they have be slightly reclined?

Can people really sit in the rear seats?

Fit and Finish of inside and outside, are they keeping up the quality or are their gaps and misalignments?

Do you feel it has improved since the Ford ownership days or gone down and this performance edition is just an exception.

Do you think the gas pedal issue is an actual mechanical issue or a programing issue? Is is drive by wire or actually a real cable to the throttle body?

Based on my last question, is this a DI engine or not?

Idle, is it smooth or does it have a bit of performance roughness to it?

What is the sound of the Exhaust at normal driving and under hard excelleration?

Besides the rear blind spots, can you tell where the corners of the car are or does it slop off and leave you with a vague sense of being there but not really sure where the car corners are?

"Its either on or really on."

How "on" is the AWD. Only on when in low traction situation or on most of the time?

I believe its on all of the time.

Interior size, can a 6'6" tall person sit in the car upright or would they have be slightly reclined?

Don't know.

Can people really sit in the rear seats?

If a tall person or someone who likes to sit back, then no. Otherwise, you can fit back there comfortably.

Fit and Finish of inside and outside, are they keeping up the quality or are their gaps and misalignments?

Quality is there, no apparent gaps or misallignments

Do you feel it has improved since the Ford ownership days or gone down and this performance edition is just an exception.

Cannot say on this since I haven't spent a lot of time in Volvos during the Ford ownership.

Do you think the gas pedal issue is an actual mechanical issue or a programming issue? Is is drive by wire or actually a real cable to the throttle body?

Thinking programming and its drive-by-wire.

Based on my last question, is this a DI engine or not?

Idle, is it smooth or does it have a bit of performance roughness to it?

Not a DI. Smooth at idle.

What is the sound of the Exhaust at normal driving and under hard acceleration?

Not noticeable when driving normally.. bit of a growl when accelerating hard.

Besides the rear blind spots, can you tell where the corners of the car are or does it slop off and leave you with a vague sense of being there but not really sure where the car corners are?

I can tell where the front corners are. Rear is somewhat difficult.

that blue is not flattering on this car.

would you drive this or a Regal GS?

I actually like the blue.. Not many others though.

GS and this are two completely different vehicles and have the price tags to prove it. I think I would choose the S60 over the GS, but I need to spend some time in a GS.

You're asking the Volvo guy if he would drive a top end Volvo or a mid range Buick?
